The TwoSixPix Real Estate and Commercial PhotographyBlog

Had the pleasure to photograph a beautiful 145 year old home in the hamlet of Hampton (Durham Region, North of Bowmanville/Oshawa). First things first, it's always a pleasure to work for a consummate professional like Kelly Welton of Coldwell Banker in Cobourg, Ontario. Kelly is a real pro, but even more importantly a wonderful, caring human being. The owner did an exceptional job with this home - she has exquisite taste and it shows in every detail. The house is fresh and bright, it's inviting and has all the modern amenities, yet its character and history is wonderfully preserved and showcased. Bravo. Located on a gorgeous piece of land, bordered by a large pond, this property is nestled in a quiet corner of this already quaint, historic community. Have a look at some of the photos:

Beautiful, inviting exterior greets you - you can see hints of the privacy nestled in nature waiting out back!

The sitting room, bright and spacious, traditional and classic, but with modern touches.

Now this is a dining room! How about GRAND dining room!? Are we in the English countryside or in Ontario, Canada?

The kitchen? Understated, elegant - spacious and bright. And whats this in the background - a back 'mud room' and what's that I see through the window?

Almost the entire East edge of the property backs on this beautiful, historic pond (its called Millstream lane for a reason - it's not one of those new fangled, computer-generated subdivision street names - there was a stream, and a mill in this area many years ago). That's approximately 400 feet of this beautiful piece of nature providing you beauty and privacy!

This property is truly a hidden gem. I think anyone who walks in the front door and has one look at the close to one acre of beautiful property nestled between a quiet, tree lined lane and this gorgeous pond will immediately feel at home. This place is more than a house and it was a pleasure to photograph.
